Creating XML text data manually using XMLWriter

One way to create XML data structures from game objects and properties is by hand-coding a method to create each element and its content, using the XMLWriter class.

How to do it...

To create XML text data using XMLWriter, follow these steps:

1. Create a C# CreateXMLString script class to add an instance as a component to the Main Camera:

using UnityEngine;
 using System.Xml;
 using System.IO;

 public class CreateXMLString : MonoBehaviour {

     private void Start () {
         string output = BuildXMLString();
         print(output);
     }

     private string BuildXMLString() {
         StringWriter str = new StringWriter();
         XmlTextWriter xml = new XmlTextWriter(str);

        ...
